Texas Instruments MSP432E401Y/MSP432E411Y SimpleLink™ Ethernet MCUs

Texas Instruments MSP432E401Y/MSP432E411Y SimpleLink™ Ethernet Microcontrollers are ideal for cost-effective applications and provide top performance and advanced integration. The MSP432E401Y/MSP432E411Y MCUs enable highly connected designs with the ability to allow critical real-time control between performance and power due to various rich communication features.

The devices offer a strong foundation for many different targets uses through integrated communication peripherals along with other high-performance analog and digital functions. Cost is reduced due to smaller memory requirements using the Arm Thumb®-compatible Thumb-2® instruction set. The MCUs are code compatible with all members of the extensive SimpleLink™ family when using the SimpleLink™ MSP432™ SDK, offering flexibility to fit precise needs.

The SimpleLink™ microcontroller (MCU) platform includes Wi-Fi®, BLUETOOTH® low energy, Sub-1GHz, Ethernet, Zigbee, Thread, and host MCUs which share a beneficial easy-to-use development environment with a single core software development kit (SDK) and rich tool set.

Designers can add any combination of the portfolio's devices into their design, using a one-time integration of the Simplelink™ platform. This feature allows the designer to reuse 100% of the code when necessary.
